JoshPR Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I mean isn't this the way bullpens are made? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Mite Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Might be worth a try, he was pretty good in his early years in the low minors, except for closers bullpen pitchers are a crapshoot anyway.

ChiSox59 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Absolutely should put in a claim and try him out in the pen. Out of options after 2023, but there really nothing to lose. Open spots on 40 man with Liam on 60 day IL, and plenty of fat to trim anyway. I suspect he won't even make it to the Sox.

The A's are a wildcard because they just don't care. I've got no idea what the Royals situation is. Sox are third for dibs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never hurts to add more depth. I'm glad for this, frankly was not happening aggressively enough. No reason John Parke should have been in AAA for 6 years or whatever when they'd clearly never put him in the majors. Should have seen a lot more dealing on minors waivers and dfa guys for such a weak group. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he's suddenly been freed up to be more active in acquiring players. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarlín García is on the Pirates 60-day IL. They have a team option. Maikel Garcia is a young Royals player so Pedro definitely wants to trade Colson for him.

South Side Hit Men Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I rather have Deivi Garcia then Middleton GMing either team. Texas’ Spenser Howard (AAA) was their other trade deadline acquisition. Not sure what the Yankees are trying to do beyond I guess survive with the s%*# load of injuries and poor performances this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
